Pick Up Before Meet Up

Rudy spent his time talking with Zia via the orb until the clock hit 10:00.

[There is also the legend that says the stars would—]

"Zia."

[Yes?]

"I have something to do, so I will take my leave now."

[Is that Lord calling you?]

"No. It's not anything related to the Lord."

[Wait, does the Lord know you are talking with me every once in a while?]

"I assume he does."

[Is that okay? Will I not be punished if he finds out that I was wasting his assistant's time?]

"But you didn't waste my time. I learn many things from you which can also be considered as teaching."

[Will I be rewarded for teaching you, then?]

"Heh." Rudy couldn't help but chuckle after hearing that.

[Don't laugh! I am curious.]

"You may be rewarded. Who knows? Is there anything you want from the Lord? I would request him to grant your wishes."

[Hmm…] Zia took a moment to ponder and responded, [Currently, there is Nothing I want. The Lord already granted my wish by taking care of the warlock. I am happy.]
